Osman and Chambers on Life's a Pitch - Ipswich Town News

Blues legend Russell Osman and former skipper Luke Chambers feature on Saturday’s Life’s a Pitch, live on BBC Radio Suffolk (12-2pm).

Host Mark Murphy will be joined in the studio by legend-in-residence Terry Butcher, while Tractor Boy and TWTD's Phil Ham will be at the New Lawn ahead of the Blues’ first ever game against Forest Green Rovers.

Osman will be alongside his long-time central defensive partner Butcher in the studio, while Chambers, now with Colchester, was interviewed ahead of the show.

"We’ll also hear from CEO Mark Ashton talking about the club’s Running Towards Adversity motto following the inspirational talks given to players and club staff by former Arizona police officer Jason Schechterle last week.
